Welcome to the first official episode of TVT, a cultural and arts program presented by Tamashakhaneh Theatre Group and created as a space for conversation, storytelling, and discovery across theatre, cinema, literature, and culture.
With each episode, TVT opens a new window onto the world of arts and culture through book introductions, cultural reports, conversations with artists, tributes to influential figures, and stories from theatre and cinema in Iran and around the world.
In this first episode, hosts Minoo Nobahari and Hossein Afsahi explore three subjects:
The Stratford Festival in Canada
We take a look at the city of Stratford, its cultural atmosphere, and one of Canada’s best-known theatre festivals.
Book Introduction
In collaboration with Bamdad Bookstore, we introduce Fundamental Changes in Iranian Society During the Reza Shah Era and a Comparison with the Qajar Period, a work examining an important period of social transformation in Iran.
Remembering Bahram Beyzaie
We reflect on the work and legacy of Bahram Beyzaie, the renowned Iranian writer, researcher, playwright, and filmmaker whose contributions have left a lasting mark on Iranian theatre, cinema, and culture.
TVT is an ongoing effort to keep conversations about art, history, cultural memory, and creative experience alive—a space to discover stories, artists, and ideas that continue to shape our cultural landscape.
